Brooding and potent, with concentrated blackberry and dried cherry flavors, laced with espresso and licorice notes, finishing with well-groomed tannins. Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Grenache. Best from 2021 through 2029.
Wine Advocate 91 points - Composed of Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Grenache, aged for 12 months in oak (38% new), the 2017 Proprietary Red Machete sports a deep garnet-purple color. It has a fragrant nose of black cherry compote, blueberry pie, and dried mulberries with hints of candied violets, dark chocolate, and roses. Full-bodied, rich, and seductive, the palate delivers tons of opulent fruit and a plush texture, finishing long and perfumed. 12,440 cases were made..April/2020
Orin Swift Machete is violet ink in the glass, with a nose of black plums, cassis, and cacao. The robust entry consists of a progressing palate of blackberry and boysenberry compote, a reduction of dark plum and ripe figs, and pure Amarena cherry. Flashes of vanilla and traces of minerality evolve into chalky tannins and a smooth lingering finish. Blend of Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Grenache from California. From winemaker Dave Phinney.
